Double Wedding Ring

The Double Wedding Ring is one of my all time favorite quilt patterns.  There are some newer, short-cut versions of this pattern, but in my opinion, the traditional pattern is the best.  I love every little curve of every little piece.  The Double Wedding Ring is a beautiful quilt no matter what the fabric choices.  Having seen many  of these quilts, I can tell you that you can shop for days (always a treat!) for the perfect collection of fabrics or dig into your scrap bag, box or barrel.......no matter what you choose --- your quilt will turn out gorgeous!!!

Recently, I had the opportunity to quilt a Double Wedding Ring quilt made from the traditional pattern.  The creator of this fine quilt  had two templates and asked if I would use the templates to quilt one design in the center of each ring and the other design in the center of each melon (the melons are the white, pointed, oval shaped pieces formed where the rings overlap). I did.  Then I did some outlining on the rings.  I certainly had fun working on this quilt.  

People who know me know that I am fascinated with the backs of quilted quilts.  I believe quilts are reversible.  The back of this quilt is a striking white-on-white design.

Please share your favorite quilt design.  I'd love to know what your favorite pattern is and see a picture if you have one available.

Happy Quilting,
